Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0015] Please refer to Figure 1 The security monitoring device 100 includes a fixing seat 30 and at least one manually adjustable camera 10. The manually adjustable camera 10 is arranged on the fixing seat 30, wherein the fixing seat 30 is used for installation and fixing, and can be installed and fixed at locations such as electric poles and wall corners. The number of cameras arranged on the fixing seat 30 is not limited here. In this embodiment, three cameras are arranged on the fixing seat 30, and at least one camera is the manually adjustable camera 10. By arranging the manually adjustable camera 10, the security monitoring device 100 can realize manual adjustment of the monitoring angle, reduce the setting of the motor or remote control structure, have a simple structure, and reduce the production cost.

[0016] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The manually adjustable camera 10 comprises a mounting seat 1, a base 3 and a camera body 5. The base 3 is movably arranged on the mounting seat 1, and the camera body 5 is movably arranged on the base 3. The camera body 5 is manually controlled to rotate relative to the base 3, and / or the base 3 is manually controlled to rotate relative to the mounting seat 1 to adjust the monitoring angle; wherein, a first damping connection structure 2 is provided between the mounting seat 1 and the base 3, and a second damping connection structure 4 is provided between the base 3 and the camera body 5. The manually adjustable camera 10 movably arranges the base 3 on the mounting seat 1 through the first damping connection structure 2, and movably arranges the camera body 5 on the base 3 through the second damping connection structure 4, and the user can manually control the relative rotation of the camera body 5 and the base 3.

[0017] It should be noted that in the prior art, the base 3 and the mounting seat 1, and the base 3 and the camera body 5 are both rotated at an angle to each other through a motor or a remote control structure, thereby adjusting the monitoring angle. The manually adjustable camera 10 provided in the present application can be adjusted manually, reducing the use of a motor or a remote control structure. However, if a motor or a remote control structure is provided between the base 3 and the mounting seat 1 or between the base 3 and the camera body 5, but no motor or remote control structure is provided at the other place, and manual adjustment is performed through the first damping connection structure 2 or the second damping connection structure 4, they all belong to the embodiments of the present application.

[0018] The first damping connection structure 2 includes a connecting column 21 and a retaining ring 23. The mounting seat 1 is provided with a first through hole 11. The connecting column 21 is provided on the base 3 and passes through the first through hole 11. The retaining ring 23 is connected to the connecting column 21 and abuts against the mounting seat 1. The mounting seat 1 is manually controlled to rotate, driving the connecting column 21 and the retaining ring 23 to rotate relative to the mounting seat 1.

[0019] In this embodiment, the connecting column 21 is a cylinder, and the part passing through the first through hole 11 is provided with a toothed structure with alternating concave and convex parts, and the protruding part is fully in contact with the mounting seat 1 to increase the friction during the rotation process; similarly, the retaining ring 23 can be made of a damping material with greater friction and is fully in contact with the mounting seat 1. When the base 3 is manually controlled and the camera body 5 is driven to rotate relative to the mounting seat 1 and reaches the monitoring angle position, due to the damping effect of the connecting column 21 and the retaining ring 23, it can be ensured that the position between the mounting seat 1 and the base 3 is relatively fixed, and the camera body 5 will not shake due to environmental changes or interference.

[0020] The base 3 is provided with a receiving cavity 31 and a mounting groove 33, the camera body 5 is provided in the receiving cavity 31, and the second damping connection structure 4 is provided between the two sides of the camera body 5 and the base 3. In this embodiment, the base 3 is in a "U" shape as a whole, the receiving cavity 31 is a hollow position of the "U", the mounting groove 33 is provided on the inner side of the "U"-shaped symmetrically extended part of the base 3, and the mounting groove 33 is provided on both sides, but the specific structural dimensions may be different, which is not limited here.

[0021] The two sides of the camera body 5 correspond to the two sides of the "U" shape. The camera body 5 includes a housing 51, one end of the second damping connection structure 4 is fixed to the housing 51, and the other end abuts the mounting groove 33. The housing 51 can rotate relative to the base 3 through the second damping connection structure 4. In this embodiment, the second damping connection structure 4 is a columnar connection structure or an annular connection structure, and the specific structure can match the corresponding mounting groove 33, and is not limited here. Of course, whether it is a columnar structure or an annular connection structure, it can be set in the manner of the first damping connection structure 2, such as increasing the resistance by increasing the roughness of the surface or using a damping material with a large friction coefficient to increase the resistance or using other methods to increase friction. Similarly, by fully abutting the second damping connection structure 4 with the mounting groove 33, when the camera body 5 is manually controlled to rotate relative to the base 3 and the mounting seat 1, after reaching the monitoring angle position, it can ensure that the position between the camera body 5 and the base 3 is relatively fixed, and the camera body 5 will not shake due to environmental changes or interference.

[0022] Please continue to refer to Figure 4In order to achieve more accurate and stable adjustment of the monitoring angle of the camera body 5, the housing 51 is provided with an elastic boss 511 and a slider 513, and the base 3 is provided with a slide groove 35 arranged relative to the slider 513 and a plurality of continuous grooves 37 arranged relative to the elastic boss 511. The slider 513 rotates in the slide groove 35, driving the elastic boss 511 to switch between the plurality of grooves 37 and engage with each other. In this embodiment, the slide groove 35 is a circular arc, and the plurality of grooves 37 are arranged continuously along the arc. The arc formed by the slide groove 35 and the plurality of grooves 37 has a corresponding center position coincident with the central axis of the rotation of the camera body 5 relative to the base 3, ensuring that the camera body 5 can rotate smoothly relative to the base 3. The continuous arrangement of the plurality of grooves 37, in cooperation with the elastic boss 511, can calculate how many grooves 37 the elastic boss 511 has passed through when the rotation of the camera body 5 is manually controlled, thereby confirming the rotation angle and achieving more accurate manual adjustment. Moreover, the groove 37 abuts against the elastic protrusion 511 to increase damping, further ensuring that the camera body 5 will not easily rotate relative to the base 3, and the security monitoring effect is more stable.

[0023] In this embodiment, the manually adjustable camera 10 further includes a limiter, which is disposed between the mounting seat 1 and the base 3, and is used to limit the rotation angle of the base 3 relative to the mounting seat 1, so as to prevent the base 3 from rotating in the same direction relative to the mounting seat 1 and breaking the circuit, thereby providing position limiting protection for the safety of the internal circuit. The limiter includes a limit block 13 and a stopper 39, wherein the limit block 13 is disposed on the mounting seat 1, and the stopper 39 is disposed on the base 3 relative to the limit block 13. By coordinating the limit block 13 and the stopper 39, position limiting can be achieved, which is simple and effective and can reduce production costs.

[0024] See also Figure 5Similarly, in order to achieve a more precise and stable adjustment of the monitoring angle of the camera body 5, in another embodiment, the manually adjustable camera 10 is provided with an adjuster 7, and the adjuster 7 includes a gear part 71 and an elastic clamping part 73. The gear part 71 is sleeved on the connecting column 21, and one end of the elastic clamping part 73 is fixed to the mounting base 1, and the other end cooperates with the gear part 71 to abut against it. During the process of manually adjusting the rotation of the base 3 relative to the mounting base 1, since the elastic engaging member 73 is arranged on the mounting base 1 and its position remains unchanged, and the gear member 71 rotates with the base 3, the elastic engaging member 73 and the gear member 71 will experience a process of engaging, popping up, and engaging again. The rotation angle can also be confirmed by calculating the number of engagement cycles between the elastic engaging member 73 and the gear member 71. Moreover, when the elastic engaging member 73 and the gear member 71 are in the engaged state, the damping can be increased to further ensure that the base 3 and the camera body 5 will not rotate easily relative to the mounting base 1, and the security monitoring effect is more stable.

[0025] Of course, the elastic engaging member 73 can be arranged on a side of the mounting seat 1 close to the base 3 or on a side away from the base 3. In order to facilitate the structural layout, in this embodiment, the elastic engaging member 73 is arranged on a side of the mounting seat 1 away from the base 3, and a second through hole 15 is opened on the mounting seat 1. The elastic engaging member 73 passes through the second through hole 15 to achieve a snap connection with the gear member 71.

[0026] The elastic engaging member 73 has various structural settings. In order to increase stability and reduce materials, in this embodiment, the elastic engaging member 73 is set to a "T"-shaped structure, and one end connected to the mounting seat 1 can achieve sufficient connection and fixation to enhance stability; the other end is set to a triangular shape to engage with the gear member 71. There is no redundant structure, which is simple, practical and easy to install.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the manually adjustable camera 10 movably sets the base 3 on the mounting base 1 through the first damping connection structure 2, and movably sets the camera body 5 on the base 3 through the second damping connection structure 4. The user can manually control the relative rotation of the camera body 5 and the base 3. While realizing the controllable and adjustable monitoring angle, the overall structural design is simple, reducing the use of motors or remote control structures, and reducing production costs.

[0028] In addition, through the setting of the adjuster 7 and the matching setting of the groove 37 and the elastic boss 511, the damping can be increased, the rotation angle can be calculated, and it can be ensured that the base 3 and the camera body 5 and the mounting base 1 will not rotate relative to each other, so that the security monitoring effect is more stable and more precise angle adjustment can be achieved.

[0029] The above is only an implementation method of the present invention. It should be pointed out that a person skilled in the art can make improvements without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, but these improvements are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
